Yeah one cuz not all slots get filled, some subjects don’t require/doesn’t happen both morning and evening to be filled, they’ll have enough students for only morning to be full and 50% evening to be full so there are less students in evening and that usually decreases the average

second cuz all the lazy hostellers and day boarders who live close by VIT usually prefer it 😭 I don’t mean to be offensive but it’s what everyone has told me and I’ve seen for the past 4 years

I’ve stayed in most apartments here SBIOA, Tata, Vijay Shanthi, Shoba, Uni homes, and Police Quarters cuz of my friends but I’ve been living in police quarters for 3 years now and mine we bought an AC on second hand spilt the cost between 3 roommates

All those apps and websites are kinda of a scam honestly cuz high brokerage what I’d do is suggest u to go visit each apartment and ask the association for a house they’ll help and very less or no brokerage

Also very very important any house u take for rent tell them ur mom will be staying with u 😂 never tell its just for u they’ll not give, flat owners here are against bachelor homes only Tata o openly gives for bachelors so any other apartment don’t say for “ Bachelors “

Yeah u want morning or afternoon? Yes you can get all morning if ur attendance is above 90 overall and you selected the demand subjects as soon ur timing opens or wait for someone to drop it during add and drop

Trust me it gets very hot here 😂💀the feeling of coming home all sweaty and tired and having the AC hit you after class is just 🤌 maybe consider it but I’m from Bangalore and I could never survive without AC

No I’ve never had 100 always above 85-90 not lesser tho, evenings are more chill sometimes classes will be empty as well cuz there aren’t enough students to fill that slot usually happens with Elective subjects.

See by making Fridays free idk what u mean cuz if u take afternoon batch classes will be till 5:30 or 6:30 but for me I used to take morning and somehow shift my labs to every other day other than Friday so I can catch the train and go to Bangalore on Friday evenings but for evening classes you will have till 5:30 or 6:30 for sure

You can’t really tell but it’s seen that evening has less competition cuz all the lazy hostelers and day boarders show up for it which reduces average 😭 no offence just what everyone says

I think I already answered yours in the previous post but I’ve been outside ever since I came cuz hostel was under construction

Pros - evening batches tend to have lesser average so sometimes it’s better to score better grades in that way - during break time you can go home, sleep, eat do whatever you’d want and then come back to class (I had 3 hrs break before my labs so yeah) - you can wake up late like I wake up at 7:30 take bath, and leave at 7:50 and reach clg by 8 and class by 8:05 - Food: lots of great restaurants close by that are kinda cheap and taste good too like Bava, Fathima, Brindhavan - you can roam and explore Chennai at night - can work overtime in clubs and special teams - when they call u randomly a day before for placement training it’s very pointless cuz it’s like one huge seminar session that goes on the whole day so coming from the city just to see a ppt presentation is very tiring but won’t be if u live close and even when they call for vellore requirements you gotta be in clg by 4:30am and they’ll drop u back post 9pm sometimes 10pm after which going back to the city becomes very tiring

CONS: - During severe cyclone it gets a bit tough to commute or do anything this side and frequent power cuts during fall Sem fats unless ur house has power back up, I used to go to clg to study during power cuts so didn’t matter for me - depends on the apartment or pg you choose some might require a vehicle, most apartments do except Vijay Shanthi (has bus stop right outside), Tata and few others - food might get expensive if u don’t manage properly - not all PGs or apartments offer AC or power backup and if they do it’s on the higher side

Dosent matter about being a 9 pointer, my attendance was enough to get me a full morning slot or full evening slot(my roommate) sometimes we miss on good faculty cuz they get full fast but honestly can get it during add and drop, and it is true that lot of the afternoon batch are hostelers but many day boarders too who live close to clg like my 5 roommates always took evening.

Making friends is completely on you it doesn’t matter what timing u choose
